On January 27, 1989, I had been in a spirit of prayer all night and was finally just startingto dose off to sleep. Suddenly, I was fully awakened by a vision of a map of the UnitedStates. It was not a vision in my head but was what some call an open vision out in front ofme.The map was in a silvery light and was completely sectioned off into states. just as suddenlyas it had appeared, I heard a voice, as robust as the sound of many waters yet with greatintensity, begin to give directions. Starting with the West Coast, the voice would speak andthat same silvery light would shoot down from the direction of heaven like a laser beam ontothe map. The light would follow the path directed by the voice and then effects wouldfollow as I will explain. First, the voice cried out: 'The West Coast, California, Oregon andWashington, starting from the southern most tip all the way up to Seattle, will suffernatural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods and fire, and enemy attack. "The line shot upthe map taking most of California and leaving only a small section that bordered on Arizonaand Nevada. It went up through Oregon taking about half of that state and then on upthrough Washington, taking about one-third of that state, then moving out toward theocean through Seattle. The minute the line touched Seattle, everything west of the linedisappeared,The voice then cried out, "Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois will suffer natural disasters,such as floods, earthquakes and tornadoes, and enemy attack. immediately, this line startedat about where Lansing, Michigan, is and fanned down in what became two lines going south109first. Then one line swung back up easterly through Ohio, going out over the Great Lake Eriethrough Cleveland. The other line swung down through Indiana and then headed back upnorthwesterly and went out into the Great Lake Michigan up by the way of the northeastcorner of Illinois and out through Chicago. When it was done, it looked like two "u"s side byside. This affected areas all through the region, for instance, as far east as Detroit andeasterly in Michigan to the Great Lake itself on the west. The whole southern part of theglove experienced cataclysmic results.

Next, the voice called out, "Most of Louisiana and all of Texas will suffer natural disasters,floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and enemy attack. " The line shot up through New Orleanseast of Baton Rouge, up through Shreveport in a kind of wiggly way then cut off all ofTexas. Texas disappeared. Louisiana experienced devastation but didn't disappearI was ready for this to end, yet the Lord continued.- New York down through Pennsylvania,the Virginias, the eastern Part of Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida will suffer naturaldisasters of every kind, hurricanes, flooding, earthquakes, etc. and enemy attack. "Theneverything that was east of the line disappeared.The Lord continued, "The Grand Canyon will suffer natural disasters. " The line seemed tostart at the bottom of the Grand Canyon heading northerly straight up to Montana throughYellowstone. This was also accompanied by cataclysmic disasters like floods, earthquakes,volcanoes, and fires. This affected a substantial area, including Arizona, Utah, westernparts of Wyoming, the eastern tip of Idaho and southwestern part of Montana, The regionsdid not disappear, but experienced utter catastrophe.

Then Missouri, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama, West Tennessee, Kentucky, and on it went.There were severe heat waves, hailstorms, energy blackouts, severe snow and ice storms aswell as extreme arctic cold spells to the loss of many lives. I saw it so often occur in somethe least likely areas, famines, pestilence, plagues, and more. Nevada and Utah were all butdestroyed through natural disasters of every kind and ultimately enemy attack. They did,however, remain on the map (Please note that I am not declaring that the states thatdisappeared fell off into the sea. I don't know why they disappeared, only that they did.Consequently, I am merely relating what I saw, not trying to interpret.)I was so dumbstruck that I felt numb, even bruised. It was hard for me to pull it alltogether in my mind. I just sat there in shock. Finally, I realized if I didn't write it down,I'd lose a lot of it as there was so much detail. So I wrote what I could remember Somestates, such as New Mexico, were lost from my memory. I couldn't remember whathappened to them, so I didn't record it.I distinctly remember, however, that the only part of the US. that was not devastated wasthe Central United States, a region basically west of the Missouri River, as I have indicatedon the map. I also realized that many of the things that would begin happening immediatelywould be of an unusual nature, such as natural disasters that would seem improbable or evenimpossible, at least for that particular geographical area,I was instructed that this sequence of events would start immediately, picking up momentumwith time until eventually the succession would be happening with gunshot rapidity, until allwas fulfilled. It's important to understand that the natural disasters did not specificallyfollow "the lines", but the lines seemed to indicate the borders of the severely affectedareas. The only one exception was the line that went up through the Grand Canyon north toMontana. In that case, the line seemed to symbolize the central core of action with aradiating aftermath both to the east and west. I saw natural disasters in Alaska and theHawaiian Islands followed by warheads.Finally, I saw a severe diminishing of our nation's military. Officers, and enlisted men, aswell as the closing of many critical bases were part of the scenario. Our ability to defendourselves was critically reduced, to a point of near ineffectiveness. (The Military cut downwas not incorporated in this vision, but was seen many years ago.)These disasters have already begun, just as He said they would. Since that vision, therehave been two earthquakes in California, terrible fires, a hurricane on the East Coast thatdid what all the meteorologists said could never happen. The storm entered inland throughCharleston, South Carolina, went north and headed back into the ocean through New York.Flooding for the first time in history was recorded in a community in northern Ohioresulting in unusual deaths. Most recently, there was an earthquake near the southernborder of Missouri, and floods in the plains, and terrible disaster in Florida from tornadoes.Those are just a few instances, but hopefully, they're enough to drive the point home.These things are neither freak accidents, as some would have you believe, nor are they justsatanic humor on mankind. Church, please realize that the Lord commanded everything thatI saw hit the map. He also told me it was part of the sequential calamities which are

warnings ultimately leading to full judgment assigned to this country. They are like blinkingred lights along the path of judgment. Go back! Stop! Repent! The end is at hand! Will youhear? Will you pray? How in His great mercy would He gladly stop or minimize catastrophefor His praying church!As I said earlier, the church will be here through much of it, but not the worst of it. Atthat, some will utter a sigh of deep relief, but I can't. I don't want people I love left behindto experience that. I saw the devastation. Never again will the people be able to sing, "Oh,beautiful for spacious skies, with amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesty abovethe fruited plain. America, America, God shed His grace on thee, and crown thy good withbrotherhood, from sea to shining sea." It will no longer be true.One better to quote will be Jeremiah:Oh, that my head were waters, and my eyes a reservoir of tears, that I might weepday and night for the slain of the daughter of my people! (Jer. 9:1 Amp.)The Lord does not delight in the announcements He has made. He has waited this long timethat we, as a people, might repent. Some foolishly say, "God is love. He wouldn't do that."My friends, God is also holy and for that reason He must let this nation who is so steeped inthe love of sin and idolatry drink the whole cup of wrath that it has been storing up for twohundred years. If God judged Israel even one time for the sin of the nation, then He mustunleash that same righteous judgment against America.Last, but not least, it doesn't really matter if we believe all, part, or any of what has beenwritten in these pages. If our response is continued apathy, it will all come to pass, most ofit before our eyes, as the Lord will fulfill His purpose. The motivating factor, which willcause Him to purge the land by fire, is the sin that has and will continue to rise up beforeHis throne day and night.Canada will experience as much devastation through various forms of natural disaster, asAmerica. As I shared in an earlier chapter, it will be for the same reasons. Both willexperience the purging fire of judgment.The Lord weeps over the souls of men who have and will suffer through these calamities. Heweeps, for His heart breaks over our pain. Fear and unbelief blinds our eyes. Jesus longs togive His light and faith, and bring the sinner to repentance. The things that have moved Himto withhold His judgments up to this point are His intense love for His church and His nowover extended mercy for the unrepentant.Don't Be AfraidBut for you, Church, the Lord's abundant mercy will be towards the meek in horrendoustimes. His presence and provision will be like the comfort of mama's arms during a nastythunderstorm in the middle of the night. Like birds that hide in the trees and clefts of themountains during great storms, God's heart longs that His church would hide in Him. Turnfrom the world, the titillating desires that will only bring pain, and find your shelter inJesus. If we have ears to hear and eyes to see as His warning continues to unfold, if we willturn from our unrighteous ways, repent and purify ourselves, we will know when He speaks112and we will have power to obey. in our obedience, we will find safety. He will neither leaveHis own nor forsake them, and He will have everyone exactly where He wants them forsafety's sake during the storm.In ConclusionI have shared with you five major experiences that directly relate to the judgments thatare about to come on the whole earth. In the process, I've indicated the eight principlereasons for His decision to bring judgment. I've also indicated the Lord's reasoning behindthe pouring out of His cup of wrath upon America. I've shared all of this in the hope that inhearing, you might believe, and that in believing, each one would take the correspondingaction needed to insure your safety in tumultuous times.As I've stated repeatedly throughout these pages, the only recourse against individualjudgment today is repentance. Each one of us must bow before the Almighty and determinein our own hearts if we are really acting in a responsible manner towards Him.If our lives are not saturated with love for Him and with a corresponding loving concern forour fellow man, then that should be our first indication that change is needed. If our livesare not being directed by Him, approved by His Word through apparent holiness, andseparation from the ideologies of the world, then we are in need of a major turn about inour lives, purpose and pattern. We need to run to Jesus. He Himself said:Would that you had known personally, even at least in this your day, the things thatmake for peace (for freedom from all the distresses that are experienced as theresult of sin and upon which your peace, that is, your security, safety, prosperity,and happiness depends)! But now they're hidden from your eyes. For a time is comingupon you when your enemies will throw up a bank (with pointed stakes) about you, andsurround you, and shut you in on every side. And they will dash you down to theground, you Jerusalem] and your children within you, and they will not leave in youone stone upon another; [all] because you did not come progressively to recognizeand know and understand [from observation and experience] the time of yourvisitation [that is, when God was visiting you, the time in which God showed Himselfgracious toward you and offered you salvation through Christ]. (Luke 19:42-44 Amp.)(emphasis added)Verse 41 says He declared this as He wept audibly over the city. Today, He is weeping overall mankind. Perilous times are ahead and He doesn't want even one lost. So His warnings andpleadings are loud and clear.Church, the things that pertain to our peace (the life that will bring us rest in a chaotic anddebauched world, which is being filled with every kind of perversion and evil), are the thingsChrist prescribes.Salvation is in His name. To attain this salvation, relinquish control of your life and accepthis Lordship over every area. You must say no to sin. The Bible is very clear concerning thekind of sins not tolerated by the Lord.113Now the doings (practices) of the flesh are clear, obvious: they are immorality,impurity, indecency, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger (ill temper)selfishness, divisions (dissensions), party spirit (factions, sects with peculiaropinions, heresies), envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. (Gal. 5:19-2 la Amp.)If you are involved in any of these sins, your only option is repentance. Furthermore, wemust love instead of hate; serve instead of being served. The Word states, if you practicethe above mentioned sins, "You shall not inherit the Kingdom of God." (Gal. 5:21c) That is anawfully big price to pay for holding on to sin. So repent of your sins and ask Jesus to comeinto your heart and become Lord of your life. If you're saved, live a holy life!It is important to know your Savior intimately, memorizing and understanding His Word. Itis imperative to have a life filled with prayer and trusting obedience, a life lived on the edgeof evangelism. It is crucial that we individually rise up and take a stand against issues thatare pressing against righteousness and overtaking the rights of the innocent.Leaders in the body are being called to re-evaluate their purposes and priorities, as well astheir ministry mode of operations. Something can appear to be very good on the surface,but if the Lord isn't saying to do it, it needs to be disbanded. Secret lives of every kind ofsin are going to be openly revealed in the lives of God's ministers. Consequently, ministersneed to regard purity in their lives and ministry as never before. Ministers are going to beforced back to a people-motivated expression of ministry and away from program andsystem-oriented organisms, which we call churches today. What arose out of much necessityhas become a two-headed monster. We won't even see the true reality of that until it'sripped out of our hands. Please understand that I am not against systems that help people. Iam simply saying the face of ministry is going to change dramatically.The Lord is going to put a brand new face on His ministry in the earth through much travailin the natural world around us. Those leaders who are preparing for the last-days ministryare already starting to make changes. Those who are not will be forced to circumstantially.It's time to raise up out of the muck and mire of the past and fight, to soar on the wings ofwhat our Lord is doing today. For the unrepentant, it's going to be full of woes, but for thepure, it's going to be times of great victories.God is earnestly cooperating with us in a concerted effort to get the family to heaven inunbroken fellowship. So don't look at the future fearfully, but prayerfully, that each onewill make it.Finally, if you believe that God is love, believe too, that He loves you. Trust that since Heknows you by name, it is His highest and best purpose for your lives that you are here todayand allowed to participate in the wonders of the coming hours. Understand that God is incontrol. Nothing is going to take Him by surprise. Jesus said none can take those whom theFather has given Him out of His hand. So rest there. Love and obey Him and declare, "It iswell with my soul!"
